“Rybakina confirmed she and Vukov were splitting up before the 2024 U.S. Open. As usual, and rightfully so, she sidestepped all inquiries.
I asked the WTA for clarification, but they didn’t get back to me. She informed me that her withdrawal prior to Round 2 was due to health issues rather than Vukov. If she so chooses, it is her responsibility to clarify,” he stated.
NEW YORK – Fourth seed Elena Rybakina has removed from the U.S. Open in front of her subsequent round match against Jessika Ponchet on Thursday because of injury.
Kazakhstan’s 2022 Wimbledon champion was planned to play Ponchet, who is making her U.S. Open fundamental draw debut this year, in the fourth and last match on Court 17.
“I would have rather not completed the last Huge homerun of the year along these lines yet I need to pay attention to my body, and I want to believe that I can finish off the rest of the year solid,” said Rybakina.
“Much obliged to you to every one of the fans who have and keep on supporting me, and I wish the leftover players best of luck.”
Since arriving at the Wimbledon semi-finals last month, Rybakina pulled out from the singles and blended pairs occasions at the Paris Olympics, lost her initial match in a U.S. Open check up occasion and declared a split from her long-term mentor.
Ponchet, who is positioned 143 on the planet, will currently confront either previous Australian Open champ Caroline Wozniacki or Mexico’s Renata Zarazua in the third round. REUTERS
